Disillusioned passive/tolerant/complicit/silent welfarist vegan foodies believe Michelle Obama’s efforts to use her bully pulpit to shape the eating habits of our nation’s corpse-munching youth is a wonderful pursuit. These same speciesist poseurs believe, hope and pray the corpse-muncher's White House Garden is some sort of steppingstone for real change as Michelle and Barack might become vegan because of their garden and/or Sasha and Malia might teach corpse-munching mom and dad the real value of life.
NEWSFLASH: Barack and Michelle Obama are ardent corpse-munchers with no intention of going vegan in this lifetime.
The Obamas are well versed/educated about factory farming, veganism, and all the grave implications of doing nothing and still choose to order up veal, baby octopus, foie gras, and a whole multitude of various embarrassing miserable poisons/death sentences.
If I were POTUS, I would have a Presidential Animal Sanctuary with baby cows and ducks to respect, care for and love … not to torture, murder and eat.
"Never be afraid to do what's right, especially if the well-being of a person or animal is at stake. Society's punishments are small compared to the wounds we inflict on our soul when we look the other way." Martin Luther King, Jr.
In a better world, the Obamas would use their bully pulpits to lead by example by shedding their lizard skins and becoming the change by showing us---not just telling us---how to be human.
“All ancient philosophy was oriented toward the simplicity of life and taught a certain kind of modesty in one’s need. In light of this, the few philosophic vegetarians have done more for mankind than all new philosophers, and as long as philosophers do not take courage to seek out a totally changed way of life and to demonstrate it by their example, they are worth nothing.” Nietzsche
